Re: Z1000A2 Owners Manual

Hi Bill - I got one when I bought my A2 in 2013 but it's not in good nick and not for sale - I've been looking out for a decent one since then! If you need something copied I can scan and send it to you if that helps. (I ended up buying an A1 manual which seem to come up more regular than the A2.) C...

Re: Z1R seat or seat base or aftermarket seat.

Ok - I see what you mean - The only other one I can see is this:

but the price is a bit steep

Out in Derbyshire

Met up with Andy (Zapo) for a run out in the sunshine.
Some old roads and some new - Nice to get some miles in.

Couple of pictures - parked up near Ambergate

Re: Abbots Bromley, Staffordshire, was it you?

Hi Andy
I am trying to look after her in the fashion she was accustomed !
Here are a couple of pictures taken on a chilly run out today 12 April.
Mr Cullen might also be interested as he keeps tabs on his 'old' bikes
Cheers

I need to get some miles on the clock !
Maybe meet up in Matlock or out that way - I think Bill P is somewhere in that direction too.
As I look out the window today though it is snowing !

Re: Z1R Battery

Ordered from Halfords 'click & collect' a Yuasa YB14L for less than £50 tonight (coincidentally) Used them for years and never left me stranded. (Yes I did have to attach the underseat kickstart once to get me home around 1986! - but it did start) When they fail they fail gradually - so thats a ...

Re: Tyre options

On my last tyre change at the end of 2020 - due to covid causing production issues- the only tyres I could get were BT46's.
Situation may have eased now but just something to be aware of.

Re: New owner / member

Before embarking on strip / rebuild I would just concentrate on getting it running right - if possible

Re: Engine oil

Definitely agree any semi 10/40 will do the job
(I've been using the Halfords one for years)

Don't be tempted to use 10/40 car engine oil as it is not designed to be in contact with clutch and can cause clutch slip
